Hey all |
| 12:52 |
|
brendan |
How many of you are running Koha 3.0 on the 5.8 version of Perl compared to the 5.10? |
| 12:52 |
|
danny |
hey owen |
| 13:02 |
|
owen |
hdl around? |
| 13:02 |
|
hdl |
hi |
| 13:02 |
|
hdl |
owen |
| 13:03 |
|
owen |
Hi hdl, I wonder if you saw my latest comment on Bug 2195: http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/b[…]w_bug.cgi?id=2195 |
| 13:03 |
|
owen |
I wanted to ask your opinion on that proposed change |
| 13:04 |
|
hdl |
ok with that. |
| 13:05 |
|
hdl |
provided the checkboxes comes BEFORE the button |
| 13:05 |
|
hdl |
(because i think that users wil fail to enter something before clicking the button if it is not that way. |
| 13:05 |
|
hdl |
Would it be ported to circulation.pl too ? |
| 13:06 |
|
owen |
yeah, I think that makes sense, even though my eyes wanted to see those buttons line up :) |
| 13:06 |
|
hdl |
could be a fieldset. |
| 13:07 |
|
hdl |
with checkboxes and button don't you think ? |
| 13:07 |
|
hdl |
fieldset Renew fieldset return. |
| 13:08 |
|
hdl |
So One could not return and renew at once any longer. |
| 13:08 |
|
hdl |
Well. Not a severe problem |
| 13:08 |
|
hdl |
. |
| 13:08 |
|
owen |
Yeah, we lose the ability to renew and return at the same time. But I think that would prove confusing to most users |
| 13:09 |
|
owen |
I hadn't looked at porting it to circulation too |
| 13:11 |
|
hdl |
owen : porting it to circulation would be great. because circulation.pl abilities should be better on circulation than Member page. |
| 13:11 |
|
hdl |
imho. |
| 13:11 |
|
hdl |
And at the moment it is not the case. |
| 13:12 |
|
hdl |
yes it was already said. |
| 13:12 |
|
hdl |
And kados thinks that too. |
| 13:13 |
|
hdl |
But it already displays old records and holds. |
| 13:13 |
|
hdl |
If it displays, it should/could allow some process on it, don't you think ? |
| 13:13 |
|
hdl |
just discussing. |
| 13:14 |
|
owen |
Sure, I understand. |
| 13:14 |
|
hdl |
my point of view. |
| 13:15 |
|
hdl |
I think that having those two pages displaying quite the same information but with different process options is quite awkward. |
| 13:16 |
|
hdl |
Maybe memberdetail bottom of the page should eventually disappear. |
| 13:16 |
|
gmcharlt |
greetings #koha |
| 13:16 |
|
hdl |
hi gmcharlt |
| 13:16 |
|
danny |
hey gmcharlt |
| 13:16 |
|
owen |
hdl: I think that may be the answer. |
| 13:17 |
|
hdl |
But we should be sure to provide users with the features they like. |
| 13:17 |
|
hdl |
And this way to update renewals and returns was asked. |
| 13:18 |
|
owen |
I'll be more comfortable with the change when circulation is AJAX-ified. |
| 13:19 |
|
hdl |
And I think it is really good for ppl who are in a personnal relation rather than in a big library corporation with much patrons to circulate. |

MikeJones |
good morning folks |
| 13:21 |
|
owen |
Hi MikeJones |
| 13:22 |
|
MikeJones |
How are ya owen? |
| 13:22 |
|
owen |
Good...just trying to remember where I left off yesterday |
| 13:23 |
|
MikeJones |
haha |
| 13:23 |
|
MikeJones |
I left off tearing my hair out trying to figure out an error when I was loading host:8080 to finish up my install |
| 13:23 |
|
MikeJones |
Called it quits, figured I'd come here this morning and see if I could get some help, just tried loading the page again, and sure enough, it worked |
| 13:30 |
|
MikeJones |
I think it's like when i take help desk phone calls, just me being on the phone, problem fixes itself...just coming here scared the install into working |
| 13:31 |
|
owen |
anyone familiar with the procedure in git for applying a change to the last commit? |
| 13:32 |
|
gmcharlt |
owen: commit the second change, git rebase --interactive origin, and squash the second patch into the first |
| 13:33 |
|
owen |
Thanks gmcharlt, I'll give it a try |
| 13:45 |
|
owen |
gmcharlt: I'm glad you caught the intranetuserjs bug. I didn't realize there was any default value |
| 13:45 |
|
danny |
owen, when viewing a patron in the intranet side of koha, is there a design reason why the zip code is not listed in the upper left hand side with the rest of the patron's address? |
| 13:46 |
|
owen |
danny: No, looks like a bug to me |
| 13:48 |
|
danny |
ok, mind if I give that one a try? =) |
| 13:48 |
|
owen |
Not at all |
| 13:48 |
|
MikeJones |
if i may...woohooo!! |
| 13:48 |
|
danny |
trying to start with small stuff to get some more experience |
| 13:49 |
|
danny |
lol |
| 13:49 |
|
MikeJones |
tons of frustration yesterday, and now it's working |
| 13:49 |
|
owen |
MikeJones: Your computer just needed a good night's rest and a bowl of cereal. |
| 13:49 |
|
MikeJones |
probably |
| 13:51 |
|
MikeJones |
This was probably the easy part, because next I have to export a small set of records from our current system, import them into Koha, and then try and get our Google search appliance to interface with Koha |
| 13:53 |
|
owen |
gmcharlt++ for pointing out git rebase --interactive. That's gonna make my life a little easier. |
| 13:53 |
|
gmcharlt |
acmoore++ for showing me that in the first place :) |

|
owen |
anyone else not get any vendors in the 'filter' menu on the Late Orders page? acqui/lateorders.pl |
| 15:10 |
|
hdl |
owen : is there no problem with displaying the person that asked for a suggestion at OPAC for other users? |
| 15:10 |
|
owen |
I think that is a problem for many |
| 15:11 |
|
hdl |
Should we remove this personnal information ? |
| 15:11 |
|
hdl |
and maybe replace by user's library ? |
| 15:13 |
|
owen |
hdl, I think that's a great idea |

pianohacker: is the AllowRenewalLimitOverride syspref part of the effort to let users edit sysprefs directly from the syspref list? |
| 16:42 |
|
pianohacker |
acmoore: No, it is a feature I added for the library I work for |
| 16:42 |
|
pianohacker |
Allows renewal limits to be overriden |
| 16:43 |
|
acmoore |
pianohacker: I think that it's confusing to include it in http://arwen.metavore.com/~jpw[…]nces-screen.patch |
| 16:45 |
|
pianohacker |
Hmm |
| 16:45 |
|
pianohacker |
Odd, not sure how that got in there |
| 16:46 |

| 18:19 |
|
liz |

| 18:20 |
|
liz |

| 18:20 |
|
liz |
<as he hits enter on whatever change he just made> |
| 18:20 |
|
danny |
lol |
| 18:21 |
|
liz |
:) |
| 18:57 |
|
danny |
wow, and I thought this was gonna be a little change lol |
| 18:58 |
|
owen |
? |
| 18:58 |
|
danny |
the zip code thing i mentioned before, turned out that two of the pages weren't even pulling that variable |
| 18:59 |
|
danny |
so i had to go to the perl scripts and have them pull that variable |
| 18:59 |
|
danny |
then i noticied that the category name isn't displaying on the Check Out tab |
| 19:01 |
|
danny |
i fixed most of it, just thought it was interesting since I thought it was just going to be as simple as adding the variable to circ-menu.inc |
| 19:01 |
|
danny |
hehe |
| 20:07 |
|
MikeJones |
well, got some test records imported...just can't do an author search |
| 20:07 |
|
MikeJones |
i only imported marc records though, no holding records |
| 20:16 |
|
owen |
Under MARC subfield constraints > more constraints > other options (choose one), the choose one refers to authorized value, thesaurus, or plugin, right? Koha link is separate? |

hi frederic and all: i checked the tag 952, sorry but i'm new to this and don't know which one to change so that MARC21 will be imported correctly. |
| 04:13 |
|
kwak |
hi again. i've read the manual on adding libraries. but how do I delete the existing ones? I can't delete Franklin, Midway, Pleasant Valley, Springfield. |
| 04:28 |
|
mason |
kwak: watch yr error log.. |
| 04:35 |
|
mason |
fyi: i have the same problem too on a koha3-stable... |
| 04:36 |
|
kwak |
mason: i got it now. you can't delete libraries with existing patrons. |
| 04:37 |
|
kwak |
what im trying to do now is importing MARC21 records. it seems that the source is not using tag 952 that's why when i import it, KOHA reports no holdings but the records are there. do you have any idea how to fix this |
| 04:37 |
|
mason |
ah, no warning tho... that needs a bug logged - if there isnt one already |
| 04:39 |
|
mason |
yes, sounds like u probably need to parse your marc records with a script, and remap your data to the expected koha fields |
| 04:39 |
|
mason |
then write out to a file |
| 04:39 |
|
mason |
http://search.cpan.org/dist/MA[…]ib/MARC/Record.pm |
| 04:40 |
|
mason |
its a pretty common issue when importing MARC records between ILSs |
| 04:41 |
|
mason |
and a pretty straightforward fix, once you get the hang of it |
| 04:43 |
|
kwak |
thanks mason, but im new to this and i saw the page. scares me. hehehe, any hints on where to start? |
| 04:44 |
|
kwak |
how about option in koha to just put all holdings into one library. |
| 04:45 |
|
mason |
hmm, not that i know of |
| 04:53 |
|
kwak |
if there's no option for this, then importing is also a tedious job. |
| 04:54 |
|
kwak |
i'm also looking for an answer to "resetting the borrower number". when i installed koha, i clicked the install sample data and of it has patrons in it. now when i add patrons, the borrower number starts at 50. |
| 07:05 |
|
frederic |
What do you mean with 'the records are there'? |
| 07:05 |
|
frederic |
If you can see item records linked to biblio record in Koha librarian interface, it means that your items have been correctly imported but you have a Koha configuration issue: library/branch definition for example, or item type definition. |
| 07:06 |
|
frederic |
Otherwise, you have to find a way to populate your biblio records with 952 entries BEFORE importing them. |
| 07:07 |
|
kwak |
frederic: when i search for books in the OPAC, it returns results. Then when i click a book title, holdings = 0 |
| 07:07 |
|
kwak |
how to do this 952. i've been searching for clues but to no avail |
